Yoga is a wonderful
way to look after the body in the months after birth. It brings a sense of
well-being and equilibrium, minimizes tiredness and aches and pains and helps
to keep a good posture and to relax. New mums naturally dedicate most of their
time and energy to their new babies, and this can lead to tiredness and feeling
overwhelmed. Postnatal sessions are an unique time only for the mum to feel good,
and to revitalizes.

During postnatal
yoga, special attention is brought to re-toning the abdomen and pelvic floor
muscles. At the same time practicing mindful breathing with yoga poses, that
gently stretch, rebalance, alleviate tension and fatigue from body and mind. A
specially designed sequence of postures strengthening the lower back and
releasing accumulated tension in the shoulders and upper back, which may be
tired from holding, nursing and carrying.

It takes
approximately six months for the body to fully recover from pregnancy and
childbirth. Wise and careful choice of exercises is essential to keep your body
in good shape and health. Postnatal yoga supported by a qualified teacher is
one of the safest and most effective way to recover after pregnancy and labor.

It is important to rest
initially. The first 6 weeks after birth are a time for bonding with the baby
and for the mother to recover.
By the end of this time, women might be ready to return to their
regular activities, but it is important to listen to what the body is
ready to do. Women should be careful and not rush back into usual
activities. Consult your GP for advice on when to resume practicing.
